A 10.00kg mass is traveling to the right with a speed of 2.00 m/s on a smooth horizontal surface when it collides with and sticks to a second 1O.00kg mass that is initially at rest but is attached to a light spring with force constant 80.0 N/m.
(a) Find the frequency, amplitude, and period of the subsequent oscillations.
(b) How long does it take the system to return the first time to the position it had immediately after the collision?
